Cholesterol Production

Saturated fat in diet will stimulate live to increase cholesterol production

Good cholesterol


helps remove deposited cholesterol in arteries

Produced in the liver when arteries are inflamed


Used as an indicator of inflammation


*may be reliable predictor for CVD


*Increasing fiber intake to 20 gm or more reduced CRP

C reactive protein levels

<1 mg/L = low level of prediction of CV event


1-3mg/L = moderate level


>3 mg/L = high risk for futrue CV event

Myeloperoxidase (MPO)

*Measures inflammation in arteries


*High levels of MPO directly linked to a high risk of cardiac event within next 6 mos.

*Can help ED providers determine whether a pt's c/o chest pain is cardiac related or other cause


*MPO may be better predictor of short-term risk than CRP

Activators


Reactions


Consequences

Alarm reaction


State of resistance


Stage of exhaustion

Alarm reaction

Physiological indicators of alertness


Fight or flight


Defense Mechanism mobilized


-increased BP, HR, Resp, perspiration


-decreased WBCs and interferon


-Pupils dilate, adrenaline and cortisol released


-Stored energy floods bloodstream

State of resistance

Signs of alarm reaction diminished


Resist noxious stimuli


Stage of exhaustion

-If stimuli or responses not diminished, exhaustion occurs


-Adaptive energy is depleted


-Resistance is decreased


-Illness may follow
